I have Canon,see you use Nikon. I would suggest whatever lens you get, my advise is not to use the hood when using your macro lens.The hood prevents the lens from getting that extra close-up you want while photographing the subject.
This might be true with a shorter macro...like the 60mm, but the MWD on my 105 is around 6"... leaving plenty of room to use the hood. A bigger issue for me is positioning my speed light...this is where a hood might interfere.
